If I posted this twice I apologize.  --ja

I have a Dell optiplex 333mhz PII with an adaptec 2940 Ultra card and the
2.2.6 CD.  I am going to set this machine up to dual boot.  Windows95 and
FreeBSD.  I stuck in an 1.6 gig IDE drive which I am going to run BSD off
of.  I really don't care if I can access the scsi devices from the BSD side
or not.  I suppose it might be kind of handy but it does not really matter.
 This is what happens when I try to boot from the floppy to do the install:

ahc0 <adaptec 2940 Ultra SCSI host adapter> rev 0 int a irq 11 on pci 2:9:0
ahc0 aic 7880 wide channel SCSI id:7 16SCBs
ahc0 waiting for SCSI devices to settle
(ahc0:0:0): "WDIGTL WDE 4360-1807A3 1-80" type 0 fixed SCSI 2
sd0(ahc0:0:0):Direct access 4095MB (8388314 512 byte sectors)
(ahc 0:A:2:0): refuses WIDE negotioation using 8 bit transfers
ahc0:board is not responding
(ahc 0:2:0): SCB 0x0 - timed out in datain phase, SCSISEQ = 0x12 SSTATO=0x0
SSTAT1=0x3
(ahc 0:2:0): abort message in message buffer

And then it seems to loop.

Any ideas?
